i think the weirdest thing for me to get behind on TNG is the idea of a spaceship with wall to wall carpet

Also impossible to kill. She’s just so annoying.

Yes, my main RP character this expansion is a shadow priest. But my OG main is Basinah here: high lord of the silver hand, sword of Wrynn, champion of Azeroth.

Jared is correct. Read Theory

"Whatever states are today, they are not what they once wereβ€”in part because, as Dasgupta chronicles, the state now faces serious competition for center stage in the organization of human society."

I decided to take the advice of my favourite witch re shadow work. I am trying to push through my poetic block. To that end, I’ve created a pseudonym and… *sigh* a Tumblr.

It’s easier to post the verses there, as I work on reconnecting to my voice.

I find that when I get into a flow state with work it is very difficult to stop working. This might not be the best way to relax (undoubtedly I won’t be able to afford it next month) but for now it is helpful.

Just wish that I had a proper guild again.

A World of Warcraft Nighborne shadow priest

A World of Warcraft Nighborne shadow priest

I did some work on the… novel outline today, so I played a little afterwards. I find that it’s very effective at turning off a hyper focus work session.

Dismayed that somehow most of my old high priest stuff isn’t available for this character. She still looks very good.

Being a freelancer on a disability pension is rough, friends. Payment from a publishing client was supposed to go through last week but I’m still waiting.

I need a buffer to pay for travel to see mom at the nursing home, and my tenants insurance will be due soon.

Oof. I’m still waiting for my publishing client to pay me for the work I finished. In the meantime, I have to pay for my necessities, and travel to visit mom at the nursing home. Everything helps. πŸ™πŸΌ ko-fi.com/soniasulaiman/

We are told a word is just a word. Sometimes a word becomes exile. This International Women’s Day I’m telling that story. Read my new piece:

One of the most depressing things about the war in Iran is how a bunch of grown ass men are acting like this is a fucking video game.

I didn’t write today! Fantastic! Just what I wanted. I went so hard yesterday, my brain would not slow down until I went to bed. So, I decided not to write today, to give myself a rest.

Today on International Women's Day I thought about my lost girlhood and womanhood in Baghdad. How my youth was wasted.
I'll turn 40 years old this year and I am left with the horrifying realisation that I've spent the past 40 years in Baghdad just trying to survive. I haven't actually lived at all.
